2 INITIAL HOTEL PROPERTIES Overview of the Initial Hotel Properties The Initial Hotel Properties consist of five hotels Regal Airport Hotel, Regal Hongkong Hotel, Regal Kowloon Hotel, Regal Oriental Hotel and Regal Riverside Hotel. All of the Initial Hotel Properties will initially be leased to the Lessee and managed by the Hotel Manager. The following table sets forth certain information in relation to the Initial Hotel Properties as at the Latest Practicable Date.

In 2006, the average room rates of High Tariff A, High Tariff B and Medium Tariff hotels were HK$1,906, HK$831 and HK$537, respectively. (2) The number of stories of Regal Hongkong Hotel and Regal Riverside Hotel will increase to 39 and 20, respectively, after completion of the Asset Enhancement Program. (3) This Gross Floor Area and Covered Floor Area include 14,200 sq.ft. of Po Sing Court, of which Gala Hotels Limited owns 41 equal undivided shares out of a total of 180 shares. Po Sing Court is a building adjacent to Regal Oriental Hotel. (4) Includes 12 house-use rooms (e.g. rooms for general managers of the hotels). Competitive Strengths Competition among hotels in general is based on a number of factors, including convenience of location, brand affiliation, price, range of services and facilities, guest amenities, and quality of customer service. Competition is also specific to the individual markets in which each of the Initial Hotel Properties is located and will include competition from existing and new hotels. Primary competitors of the Initial Hotel Properties include High Tariff A and High Tariff B hotels in the market in which each of the Initial Hotel Properties is located. The hotel sector in Hong Kong remains competitive and the Initial Hotel Properties are subject to competition from other hotels for guests. 92
3 The REIT Manager believes that the Initial Hotel Properties as a whole have the following competitive strengths: strategically located across Hong Kong, the Initial Hotel Properties offer a diverse range of accommodations, facilities and outlets to cater for different segments of the market; well maintained and upgraded as a result of renovation work undertaken and being carried out; Regal Airport Hotel, the flagship hotel among the Initial Hotel Properties, enhances the branding of all of the Initial Hotel Properties with its award winning status; the Hotel Manager has substantial hotel management experience of over 20 years. The Regal brand name is well recognized in Hong Kong and the Hotel Manager is well connected to sources of demand in Hong Kong, Greater China and internationally; and further enhancements are expected from the Asset Enhancement Program which aims to develop under-utilized areas and plot ratios.

5 REGAL AIRPORT HOTEL The Regal Airport Hotel is currently the only airport hotel directly connected to the arrival level of the passenger terminal of the Hong Kong International Airport by an enclosed, air-conditioned walkway. The Regal Airport Hotel s close proximity to the Hong Kong International Airport makes it attractive to both business and leisure travelers. It is conveniently located for transit passengers en route to and from the PRC and elsewhere. It is also well positioned for business and leisure travelers visiting downtown Hong Kong (which can be reached via the Airport Express Line) or the adjacent AsiaWorld-Expo conference and exhibition center and Hong Kong Skymart or Disneyland, the Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery and Tai O on Lantau Island. Lantau Island is undergoing ongoing development, with the Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car commencing operations in September 2006 and a nine hole golf course in the Hong Kong International Airport zone expected to commence operation by The Hotel Manager considers the Regal Airport Hotel to be the flagship hotel among the Initial Hotel Properties. It has been rated as The Best Airport Hotel Asia-Pacific by Business Traveler Asia-Pacific for six consecutive years ( ) and by TTG Asia in 2005 and The Regal Airport Hotel carries a High Tariff B rating from the Hong Kong Tourism Board and was opened in In September 2006, the conversion works of a portion of the basement floor into 13 new meeting rooms and renovation works of 21 rooms (with spa facilities) were all completed at a total cost of approximately HK$16 million.

6 The majority of travelers to the Regal Airport Hotel are leisure and business travelers. Guests of the hotel are primarily from the PRC and other parts of Asia. The Regal Airport Hotel attracts visitors on both local and departure packages and those attending conferences in Hong Kong (such as Pearl River Delta regional meetings and airline training conferences for overseas staff). Airline crew and long-staying guests in relation to various airport projects are also a steady source of business for the Regal Airport Hotel and emergency layovers provide extra bulk occupancy at certain periods. As shown in the charts set out below, visitors from Asia (including the PRC) accounted for 59.1% of the total guests at the Regal Airport Hotel by number of room nights in 2006, while leisure travelers accounted for approximately 33.4% and business travelers accounted for approximately 35.0%, respectively, of guests by number of room nights. Regal Airport Hotel Visitor Geographical Origin Mix by Number of Room Nights (1) Others 17.0% PRC 31.4% Americas 13.3% Regal Airport Hotel Visitor Mix by Number of Room Nights (1) Airline Layover 9.4% Business 35.0% Airline Crew 22.2% Europe 10.6% Asia (excluding PRC) 27.7% Leisure 33.4% Note: (1) In relation to a period, the number of room nights is the number of times a hotel room is used or available for use by a guest(s) for an overnight stay of up to 24 hours. The origin mix and visitor mix by number of room nights are statistical data collected at the Initial Hotel Properties. The Hotel Manager s strategy for the Regal Airport Hotel is to continue to focus on airport related transit and airport related business travelers (including airline crews) and other corporate airport business as its primary markets. It is intended that exhibition/meeting and conference business travelers will constitute the next most important market. Hotel room demand from the Hong Kong International Airport is expected to grow with its continuing expansion. The Hotel Manager also expects the exhibition/meeting and conference markets in Hong Kong to grow as the nearby AsiaWorld-Expo attracts business in the coming years. As the AsiaWorld-Expo, SkyPlaza and other facilities of SkyCity continue to develop into an aerotropolis (1), it is also the Hotel Manager s strategy to build up occupancy ahead of room rate optimization to further strengthen brand recognition and customer base, providing better opportunity for yield management when the aerotropolis market matures. As part of the Hotel Manager s strategy, the Asset Enhancement Program is being implemented which is expected to increase the revenue-generating capacity of the hotel. Note: (1) The word aerotropolis literally means an air city and was coined by Dr. John Kasarda in

Operating and Occupancy Rate Information: For the year ended December 31, Number of rooms (1) 1,104 1,104 1,104 1,104 1,104 1,104 Occupancy rate (%) (2) Average room rate (HK$) ,027.3 RevPAR (HK$) Notes: (1) Includes 3, 3, 3, 3, 3 and 4 house-use rooms (e.g. rooms for general managers of the hotel) for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. (2) The occupancy rate decreased from 66.8% in 2002 to 51.9% in 2003 due to the outbreak of SARS, from 73.3% in 2004 to 66.0% in 2005 and to 64.1% in 2006 primarily as a result of a revenue management strategy of improving the guest mix to include more higher spending travelers. Competition Regal Airport Hotel is currently the only hotel directly linked with the Airport Passenger Terminal Building, hence, it faces limited direct competition. Regal Airport Hotel has extensive facilities and services and has been rated as The Best Airport Hotel Asia-Pacific by Business Traveler Asia-Pacific for six consecutive years ( ) and by TTG Asia in 2005 and Regal Airport Hotel will face competition from new hotels in the vicinity of the airport. In August 2006, the Airport Authority Hong Kong announced the construction of a 1000-room second airport hotel the Hong Kong SkyCity Marriott Hotel. This new hotel will be developed in two phases with the first phase (comprising 658 rooms) targeted for completion in January 2009 and will be operated by Marriott International Inc. It will be located within the SkyCity development, which is a comprehensive development comprising AsiaWorld-Expo, a golf course and the planned terminal close to the planned SkyPier, but it will not be directly linked with the Airport Passenger Terminal Building. Also, a 460-room Novotel Citygate Hong Kong at the MTR Tung Chung Station commenced full operation in April 2006 but the Hotel Manager has informed the REIT Manager that it did not have a significant impact on the business of Regal Airport Hotel in For further details regarding competition faced by Regal Airport Hotel, see Appendix V Letter from the Market Consultant in Relation to its Hong Kong Hotel Industry Report to this Offering Circular. 97
